New (to us) IP350-004 was created by PirateHulagirl
We just wanted to introduce ourselves and say "HAPPY FRIDAY" to our fellow IP owners. We took ownership of our IP350 at the end of July and sailed it from St. Pete, FL to Destin, FL. Sailing is very new to us (yes we had a captain on our crossing) and we are having fun getting to know her. We are looking forward to the adventure and it's nice to know we have such a supportive forum.

Our boat's name is Cayo Hueso and we are Scott (Pirate) and Jenny (Hulagirl); see you on the water!!!

I forgot to change the category from "Yacht Systems" to "Share Some News". Rookie mistake.

Congrats on your purchase!!! You could not have purchased a better boat (in our biased opinion). We are still new to this whole sailing/boating thing but we are loving the journey. We would be interested to hear about your travels back to Texas, route, etc. When do you plan on taking her home? And more importantly, what is the new name going to be?

Again, welcome to the Island Packet family!

Welcome to the IP fleet and family, you made a great choice in buying an Island Packet Yacht. Thank you for your update, both of you Cayo Hueso and Neon Moon. Welcome. I know you will enjoy your new boats and the learning of all the systems. Allow me to introduce to you one of our former IP owners and sailing instructor and delivery captain. Blaine Parks has owned and IP 35 and IP 40. He has sailed Maine to the Bahamas and he had delivered yachts into the Caribbean and all over the Gulf coast as well. He also is a sailing instructor and he can help you learn your boat. If you want to contact Blaine, please use the CONTACT link in the menu. I am sure you can learn a lot about your systems and your new to you IP.

Welcome to the IP fleet.
